tRIP.COM

"Super Flash Sale for Reserved Tickets" refers to high-demand ticket sales ​during holiday peaks, where users place reservations on Ctrip. As the sale ​nears, users are guided to the flash sale page. Early visits and staying on ​the page increase ticket success rates. I designed the UI and visuals for ​Ctrip's train ticket Super Flash Sale page based on this context.
